and what he does not understand is that the socket is only needed LOCAL
nagios as brought example normally runs on a monitoring host and checks
the TCP port, sad enough that we have to explain this the mysql-maintainer

where will a monitoring over the network trigger the socket below?
TCP port is directly mysqld in this case

[root@srv-rhsoft:~]$ cat /lib/systemd/system/mysqld.socket
[Unit]
Description=MySQL Database activation socket

[Socket]
ListenStream=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

[Install]
WantedBy=sockets.target
